(Kid) MatUiewi cleared his first major heavyweight hurdle here Monday nlgtit. Matthews, 183 4, Seattle, looked impressive In punch- - lng out a 10 round decision over Rex Layne, 198 ifc, Lewlston, Utah. Layne waa the first heavyweight of reputation that Matthews had met. His manager, Jack Hurley, said after the fight lie hoped to sign Matthews for a match sometime In July with Rocky Marclano, the . Brockton, Mass., belter who knock ed out Joe Louis. Matthews was Just too classy and hit too hard for Layne, a prim itive type mauler who neverthe less holds a decision over heavy weight champion Joe Walcott. KNOCKDOWN The sharp-hitting Seattle veter an scored the only knockdown of the fight In the second round. He set the rugged Layne up with body punches to land his favorite left and right combination to the head. The right floored Layne for an eight count. The big fellow was groggy when he got up but was able to weather another Matthews flurry until the bell. Matthews bad his foe In trouble several times again before the end but was content to box and counter-punch without rushing In for the kill. He apparently developed at healthy respect for Layne's punching power to the first round when the Utah man twice stag gered him with lefts to the head. MISTAKES Hurley expressed satisfaction with Matthews' showing. "He beat a big, strong, good boy." Hurley said. "Of course he still made a lot of mistakes, and I thought he it I.avne Bet away a couple of times when he had him set up for the knockout But we're sstisfied and think we'd give a good ac count of ourselves with Marciano." A crowd of 11,000. the largest In Oregon boxing history, paid nearly (73,000 a record gate in the state, to see the fight.

The unollicial odds lean toward the ex-Washington State football Ail-American despite the fact that the Jap has lulled stojack to sleep to a recent meeting here. But Yamato didn't connect with his pet bold until Stojack hoisted him too near the ropes with the airplane spin.
